The 43rd National Productivity Awards took place on 16 October at the COEX Auditorium in Samseong-dong, Seoul. The awards are hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and organised by the Korea Productivity Center. Apostille Korea received the Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy commendation at the event. What weighed most in the evaluation was that consumers can obtain domestic and overseas civil documents with far less effort. Being the first company in Korea to offer a service that handles overseas civil documents also had a positive effect. Apostille Korea is known as a platform that arranges the issuance of civil documents on behalf of users.
A service area built around overseas documents
Submitting a document to an overseas authority, or using a document issued abroad inside Korea, means checking procedures that differ from country to country. Issuance is often only the first step, followed by translation, notarisation and legalisation. Apostille Korea organised that sequence into a single application flow and was the first in Korea to offer it as a service. The scope covers not only Korean documents sent abroad but also documents issued overseas. The company said it applies a range of data processing technologies to its services. It also stated that it will focus on developing a differentiated business model.
